Hot! BMW AG: What's Next

[Gor134]

The G60 is plain ugly in real life and from all angles the design front, side or rear looks awkward and doesn't look elegant at all like the G30. I have seen one parked next to an Audi A6 and the boot, roof and greenhouse are at least 5cm taller than the A6, which looks so much more elegant and sleek in comparison.

The LCI G30 was one of the best looking 5 series models ever in my opinion and then its successor becomes the ugliest 5 ever. What a disaster.

Its also too big, for crying out loud its bigger than the E65 a massive 5060mm long, just 11cm shorter than the W223 S-class.

I love all the previous 5 series models, but I just cant seem to like the G60. I hope the LCI will be a massive change and improve this ugly duckling.

The g30, and prior F10, were gorgeous with their "Swept back" RWD proportions.

The G30 is a fantastic looking car, especially this LCI version. I was very close to buying a 2017 520d G30 3 years ago, it was a tough choice between that car and the W213 E200 that I finally purchased.

the pre facelifted G30 to me is the worst looking 5er ever and thank god the facelift fixed it and maked it look 100x better,BTW this applies to the G11 7er as well

Unfortunately, after the G30 LCI was done with its life cycle. The current G60 came in, and could not be able to keep up with its predecessor, externally and internally.

I think it's the exact opposite; the G11 facelift has turned it into a characterless car. Before the facelift, it looked like a purebred BMW.

This thing looks scary. Thankfully, they've learned their lesson.

I find the G30/31 5 series cars fine examples of a former BMW design paradigm. Upon presentation and well into the model run, they were visually stunning IMHO.

However, when looking at the G60/61 5er "in the metal", I am actually surprised how my initial skepticism regarding its exterior design has completely evaporated. Tastefully spec'd, I find them very handsome cars. I've truly embraced the design. Of course, I also find the W214 E-Class beautiful as well-but in a somewhat different way. And as with most cars, paint and rims are so important.
